A habit of washing hands regularly can keep many germs away and prevent the contagious spread. Cleaning hands frequently is the key in protecting against the spread of viruses.

Staying hydrated keeps the mucous membranes moist and elastic and makes it hard for the viruses to find minute cracks to enter in. Take plenty of fluids like water, soups, broths, probiotics drinks, fruit and vegetable juices without sugar.

  1. Exercise habitually
Exercise boosts the immunity as well. It boosts blood flow so that the immune cells circulate throughout the body. You don’t need to take a long time for that. 30-60 minutes daily walk is what you need as a minimum.

  1. Sleep well
Lack of sleep has been linked to an impaired immune system.

It is recommended for adults to take 7-8 hours of sleep every night for optimal rest.  Kids need 10-12 hours of sleep.

Homeopathic Rhus Tox ointment

Rhus toxicodenron, commonly known as  the Poison Ivy grows in thickets and low grounds in North America, flowering in June. It was introduced into England as a plant in 1640. In 1798 Dufresnoy of Valenciennes first used it as a medicine. It was brought to his notice by the cure of a young man of an herpetic eruption  of six years’ duration, through his being accidentally poisoned with the plant.  Dufresnoy used it successfully in eruptive diseases, paralysis, rheumatism, and amaurosis. More than 200 years later, today it is very well known to be very useful specially in the wet weather.
